By Daniel Moxon – @dmoxon_ Liverpool produced a respectable performance in their return to European action, but would pay the price for their failure to produce and convert chances as they lost at Napoli in their opening Champions League Group E fixture.

By James Miller – @JimmyMiller2608 The Premier League provides a home to some of the finest footballers in world football, with Liverpool in particular proving a popular destination. One of those excellent players is Roberto Firmino. He is one of the most technically gifted footballers in world football, right now, but why does he rarely
Gini Wijnaldum is a star – he may not shine as brightly as others, but the sky is darker without him
By James Miller – @JimmyMiller2608 The Netherlands have once again announced their intent on the international stage, with Liverpool midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum playing a starring role.
